I know some of yall mentioning how he risked this all for an average hoe. Yes she is, but if she were FINE, would it be justified? It was stupid regardless of her looks and/or her age.

It wouldn't be right or justified but you could kind of understand.
Speaking of laws, maybe you should look up laws regarding transporting minors across State lines for the purpose of sex
She's a sex worker and he was paying her for sex
That changes things tremendously
If they want to charge hin for sex trafficking, that would be one thing. But if they started meeting when she was 19, she was not a minor.
